Chapitre 35: Chapter 35
"Ahh!"
Buffalo was hit in the stomach by a black iron rod, which then transformed into a cage, instantly locking him up.
Now he was unable to fly.
As a result, the two of them instantly "crashed" and began to free fall.
At this moment, Abel felt somewhat helpless, but he had tried his best.
Luckily, the ocean was below, and since Buffalo had exhausted too much energy earlier, he hadn't flown too high.
He should survive the fall.
This was perhaps the only good news.
However, just at this moment, Abel felt his descent had suddenly stopped.
Turning his head, he found out that it was Doflamingo who had saved him.
After wrapping Abel and Buffalo with fine strings, Doflamingo quickly threw the two to a distance, then used the power of his String-String Fruit to pull clouds, swiftly approaching the warship.
Seeing the right moment, Senor Pink jumped up, easily caught Abel and Buffalo, and then turned his gaze back to the warship behind him.
"Everyone, target Doflamingo. Fire!"
Bang, bang, bang!
Seeing the people were rescued by the opponent, Tsuru internally lamented the missed opportunity, but immediately ordered concentrated fire on Doflamingo.
After all, as long as Doflamingo was captured, the so-called Donquixote family would disintegrate in an instant.
"Tsuru, you're increasingly impressive, I can't believe a renowned Marine Vice-Admiral would attack two children. It's truly unbelievable."
Doflamingo, who had condensed strings into a shield to block all bullets and just landed on the warship, couldn't help but start taunting.
However, Tsuru was unmoved, "I'm just trying to save two children from going down the wrong path, from straying further down the path of evil."
"Ha ha ha ha, save them? There's probably no need for that. They will actively find me, wanting to join the Donquixote family. For this, I should thank you."
"It's you marines who have pushed them towards me, towards the 'evil' you speak of!"
Doflamingo spread his arms, his laughter full of ridicule.
Tsuru slightly furrowed her brows, even though she didn't know exactly what had happened to the child, she could sense the mockery in his tone.
Perhaps there was indeed some inside story.
After all, the Navy was a large organization, and bad apples were always present and endless.
Some branches far from the central jurisdiction had even become more monstrous tumors than some of the pirates.
Therefore, over the years, there have always been people who, for various reasons, hold a grudge against the Marines and turn to the life of crime, such as becoming pirates.
Tsuru had always been well aware of these issues, yet there were no easy solutions.
She could sympathize, but she would never tolerate!
Perhaps the child really joined the wicked force of the Donquixote family because of the Marines' 'negligence' or some other reason, but that was not an excuse for her to turn a blind eye.
On the contrary, her desire to bring him back to the right path intensified.
"Maybe what you said is true, maybe we Marines did make mistakes, but we will face these errors, to make amends, to correct them."
"And now it's time for us to rectify the mistakes we've made in the past."
"Donquixote Doflamingo, you won't be escaping today."
The 60-year-old Tsuru suddenly exuded a powerful aura that even made Doflamingo turn pale!
However, Doflamingo was not easily intimidated, since he dared to stay here and buy time, naturally he had enough confidence in his own strength.
"Don't talk big, old woman! I want to see what you can do to stop me!"
"Five-Color Strings!"
Doflamingo acted first, firing the first shot of the battle.
...
On the Flamingo's ship, Abel and Buffalo, having been freed from their entanglement, lay on the deck to rest due to exhaustion.
"Full speed ahead!"
"Quick, quick, quick, only if we reach safety first can our young master relieve his pressure and return as soon as possible."
"We'll have to kill all these damn Marines someday!"
As for these voices, Abel automatically filtered them out.
Using the Asura Aurora Slash three times in a row not only drained his physical strength, but also left his head feeling a bit heavy.
But the good news was that he had just received a system notification, the Asura Aurora Slash had unexpectedly upgraded to LV2!
In addition to his diligent practice over this period of time, Abel also guessed that this skill upgrade might be related to the fusion of his understanding of the swordsmanship of the White Yaksha.
Moreover, before Buffalo was hit, he could have unleashed one more Asura Aurora Slash.
That was the Asura Aurora Slash he had recorded with his blank magic card.
However, given the situation at that time, even if he had made another strike, it wouldn't have helped, so he chose not to reveal this ability.
"Now that Asura Aurora Slash has been upgraded to LV2 and Magic Card Transformation is still at LV1 and can no longer record, it seems I need to find time to improve this skill as well. In a critical moment, it might yield unexpected results."
Abel took this opportunity, when no one was disturbing him, to carefully plan out his next training content.
After an unknown amount of time, the full-speed Flamingo finally shook off the pursuing military vessels.
Normally, it wouldn't be this easy.
It can only be said that Doflamingo's prowess in group combat was enough to hold back the Marines, preventing them from paying attention to the Flamingo.
After a while, a figure quickly approached from the sky.
"The young master is back!"
The Donquixote family's spirits lifted, as if a weight had been lifted off their hearts.
While they had great faith in Doflamingo, who had broken off to cover their retreat, there's always the chance for mishaps.
If Doflamingo was truly caught, the Donquixote family might as well disband, and everyone would have to say their goodbyes and return to their respective homes.
Although the person had returned safely, Doflamingo looked somewhat haggard at this time.
Not only was half of his pink feathered coat burned, but even his flamboyant sunglasses were shattered, with only one frame hanging from his nose.
His left cheek was slightly swollen, obviously punched by someone.
A wound gushing with fresh blood was also inflicted on his arm.
Not a bit graceful!
Looking at Doflamingo's expression, his gloomy anger kept everyone from speaking casually, for fear of being misdirected.
At this time, it was Trebol who loudly shouted, "Where's the doctor? Doffy, hurry up and bandage the wound."
"I'm fine, just a bit careless. I didn't expect that old woman to have a few formidable female Marines hiding by her side, almost got held back."
"But the consequences of provoking me are not something that old woman can bear!"
Doflamingo sneered twice, clearly after suffering a setback, he retaliated immediately, leading to many Marines dying from friendly fire.
